Today I’m sharing the fourth of five cards I made for a presentation I made to Allison Okamitsu’s demonstrator event in Canada (it was online, so my travel costs were low). My presentation focused on finding color combinations that help our new In Colors shine. Moody Mauve can be difficult to get to know, but she really starts to shine as you start to use her. Here’s a simple card I made that features Moody Mauve in a beautiful color combination:
My card combines the new Moody Mauve with returning Misty Moonlight (a Neutrals color) and returning Lost Lagoon (a Subtles color). To a Basic White panel that was texture-embossed with the Exposed Brick 3D Embossing Folder, I added two strips of Designer Series Paper (both measuring 2″ x 4-1/4″). The Moody Mauve piece is pulled from the Fresh as a Daisy Designer Series Paper, and the lost Lagoon panel is pulled from the gorgeous Inked Botanicals 6″ x 6″ Designer Series Paper.
Here’s a look at the colors and patterns in the Fresh as a Daisy Designer Series Paper:
Here are the colors and patterns in the Inked Botanicals 6″ x 6″ Designer Series Paper:

The sentiment on my card is heat-embossed with White Stampin’ Emboss Powder and the Handmade Hugs stamp set – straight and to the point. Love it! I cropped the sentiment with the new 2-3/8″ Circle Punch. Here’s a look at the Handmade Hugs Stamp set:
I love these sentiments that work so well with the Handmade Tag Punch. Here’s a closer look at the sentiment on my card:
Behind the sentiment, you can see a piece of the Moody Mauve 3/8″ Textured Ribbon that I folded a couple of times and positioned behind the sentiment. Such an easy way to add a beautiful ribbon to a project!
